• This repository contains source code for WaterGAN developed in WaterGAN: Unsupervised Generative Network to Enable Real-time Color Correction of Monocular Underwater Images.
• This code is modified from Taehoon Kim's DCGAN-tensorflow (MIT-licensed). Our modifications are MIT-licensed.

Usage

Download data:

1. MHL test tank dataset: MHL.tar.gz
2. Jamaica field dataset: Jamaica.tar.gz
3. In air data: Any RGB-D dataset, e.g. Microsoft 7-Scenes, NYU Depth, UW RGB-D Object, B3DO<br /> Note: The current configuration expects 640x480 PNG images for in-air data.

Train a model with the MHL dataset:

python mainmhl.py --water_dataset water_images --air_dataset air_images --depth_dataset air_depth

Train a model with the Jamaica dataset:

python mainjamaica.py --water_dataset water_images --air_dataset air_images --depth_dataset air_depth

Color Correction Network

WaterGAN outputs a dataset with paired true color, depth, and (synthetic) underwater images. We can use this to train an end-to-end network for underwater image restoration. Source code and pretrained models for the end-to-end network are available here. For more details, see the paper.
